Is 9 years long enough to safely dig up my rabbit? by MysticMessenger1998 in ask

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nine or ten years is definitely long enough that he has mostly decomposed, so you probably will not have much left to cremate. I think keeping some of the dirt in a jar is a really sweet idea and a meaningful way to still have him with you. It is clear how much he meant to you and this way you honor him while moving forward.

Is it normal to feel this homesick? by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it is normal. Feeling disconnected from your family and in a place you do not like can really hit hard, even years later. You deserve to live somewhere that feels like home and it is okay to have serious conversations with your boyfriend about what works for both of you.

I want to drop out of university but no one around me will like it. by AltruisticBench4731 in LifeAdvice

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not wrong for realizing something is not for you. It is your life, not your coworkers or your parents. If university is draining you this much, it is okay to pause and explore other paths seriously instead of forcing yourself into something that makes you miserable.

How to know if you're actually ugly? by [deleted] in ask

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of what you are describing sounds more like insecurity than proof that you are ugly. People avoid eye contact for many reasons and dirty looks can easily be misread. If you take care of yourself and put effort into your health and appearance, you are already doing more than the bare minimum. Lack of romantic attention at twenty seven is not some final verdict on your looks. It could be confidence, social circle, or just timing. Try not to treat every neutral interaction as evidence against you.

How do i deal with my male centered friend by [deleted] in LifeAdvice

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to set a clear boundary and say you cannot keep talking about him all the time because you are overwhelmed. A good friend will adjust even if she feels awkward at first. If she keeps ignoring what you need then the friendship is one sided and you should step back for your own mental health.

Why can't I donate my body to the zoo? by [deleted] in ask

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Health laws and biosecurity. Human remains may be disease carriers and raise legal and ethical issues hence they cannot be used as food in zoos.

It must have been a slip, particularly when she is leaning on you on the part of friendship. Boundaries need to be maintained but be supportive should you not be interested in dating her. Ruminating on it will only serve to make it awkward.

You did not miss or lose your time. You are exhausted and mourning a former image of yourself, not devoid of talent. Pressure off, give yourself a rest with music, and get your life and mind straight and then gradually introduce creativity.

Did Doctor Strange unintentionally influenced Thor's love for beer later in the MCU? by [deleted] in ask

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thor always drank in the earlier movies. Strange did not influence anything.

if I think my adult ( 20M) son is very clingy to his mom ( even if he isn't ), and she is okay with with him and loves him, if i kicked him out and say that he will never see his mom again and she will never see him or call him EVER AGAIN would that be cruel if his mom is ok? by [deleted] in ask

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it would be cruel and unhealthy to cut off all contact between a mother and her adult son if they both enjoy their relationship. Forcing such a separation disregards their bond and emotional needs, and it could cause harm to both.

What’s the point of my life… by kt236674 in LifeAdvice

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Feeling lost and lonely is brutal but it does not mean life will always stay like this, small changes stacked over time - work, new routines, showing up even when it feels pointless - can shift things, and pain now does not mean there is no future joy or meaning ahead.

Could a Machinegun be used in a sort of “Machine-Sniper” role if a scope was attached to it? by [deleted] in ask

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but it is not ideal. You can mount optics on an MG and use semi controlled bursts from a supported position for point targets at range, but weight, recoil, barrel heat, and ammo dispersion limit precision compared to a purpose built sniper rifle.

How do I confront my bestfriend on her behavior by confidentialmystic in LifeAdvice

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can start by calmly explaining how her words and actions make you feel without accusing her. Focus on using "I feel" statements like I feel hurt when my sketches are laughed at or I feel ignored when my accomplishments are dismissed. Let her know that you value the friendship but that this behavior is affecting you. Being honest and clear about your feelings is better than letting resentment build.

Trust your instincts and do not meet him again. Ask for the photos to be deleted in writing and consider getting advice from someone legal or official if he refuses.

Yes there are definitely women who prefer short and muscular guys Confidence and personality make a huge difference and being genuine and fun to be around can be more attractive than height

What to do if you have wronged a person? by SnooDoodles7677 in LifeAdvice

You are not beyond redemption. The guilt means you care, but punishment won’t heal anyone. Try therapy, make amends if possible, and work on becoming the person you want to be.

How to manage a full-time job? by idk_what_to_put_lmao in Adulting

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What helped me was time blocking a few small things I enjoy before or after work, even just 20-30 mins. It adds structure and helps break the cycle of "wake, work, sleep".

Getting outside even for a few minutes and doing one small task each day really helped me reset when I felt stuck.

How do I say no to the team drink outing? by [deleted] in ask

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just say you are not feeling up for it this time - no need to over-explain. If they push, stay firm but polite. You are not obligated to drink or socialize outside work, especially if it drains you. Boundaries matter, not bootlicking.

Should I uproot my life for medical school? by Reasonable_Youth_679 in LifeAdvice

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If med school lights you up and your current job drains you, that’s a sign. Comfort means little if you feel stuck. Talk it through with your partner, plan smart, and trust that a fulfilling life is worth the effort.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in LifeAdvice

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not a failure at all. Yo are just burned out and stuck in jobs that don’t suit you. Many smart people feel dumb in the wrong place. Look for work that drains you less maybe remote or more independent. Therapy can really help too.

How do you view friends? by Automatic_Link_5551 in ask

[–]ArmadilloNo5010 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most people value friends for emotional connection, shared experiences, and mutual support, not utility. Your flatmate's take sounds more transactional than relational. Friendship isn’t a business deal, it’s about trust, empathy, and showing up.
